In the crypto world bitcoin was first  I had and how you can invest $ and it will add value and I know about other coins but I feel safe when I hear about bitcoin I have seen so many trading on bitcoin and making good earnings in return . Do you have to buy the coins leave it in your wallet for a while for it to add value or do you need to trade it I really wants to understand the transaction and investment in bitcoin because to me I have tried to invest in it but I’m not seeing any added value to my coin bought .
    Can some one invest $100 to start or do you need more fund than this to start up any crypto investment , I have done so many research about the investment and making out good earnings from bitcoin still not working out for now I will be glad if I can get any ways to get it right .

How much you want to invest is up to you. You can invest with less than $100. But there are certain things to do before investing. If you are new then you must acquire knowledge about investing. You need to know which position to buy and which position to sell. You have to learn well whether to wait long time or wait short time before investing. But if you try your best then surely you can get success from here.

By far the best thing that you can do as a newbie is to store your bitcoin in your own non-custodial wallet and forget about trading. "buying low selling" high seems like an easy way to increase the amount of bitcoin, but its much harder than it looks and in majority of cases you will end up having less than you had when you started.



$100 dollar is perfectly Ok amount to start. Generally, only invest the amount you are comfortable with and don't feel pressure that you have to invest more than you can realistically can because despite everything, bitcoin is still a high risk investment and it may take a while before you are in profit.

If you have no trading knowledge whatsoever would advise that you buy when the price is low and then hold you should also consider if you're in for a long-term investment or you just want to be a short-term holder.
And yes $100 is enough to get you started, you can get some coins for 100 dollars set up a non-custodial wallet, and keep the coin there until you feel the price is good for you to sell and if you're in for the long term you don't have to bother yourself checking the price of Bitcoin constantly only short term investors do that.

Let us say you bought one hundred dollars of bitcoin last week at a price of $20,000; the current bitcoin price is $24,000. Your bitcoin asset is valued at $120; that represents a 20% increase in your capital. Using the same amount of capital from any bank, you cannot make more than that. You may need to increase your capital if you want to earn more. But you are just getting started, so you are already doing well. You can practice trading when you are not busy. Free online guides can be found anywhere online but do not download any files. You can watch videos on youtube. Assuming that you stick to just investing, you ought to move your bitcoin to your very own wallet for safety.

Because it is less risky than other coins, Bitcoin is the best coin to invest in if you are new to cryptocurrency .

Bitcoin investment is not a get-rich-quick scheme; you must be patient if you want to see a significant return on your investment. Invest in Bitcoin with an amount you can afford to lose, then keep the Bitcoin in your wallet until the price of Bitcoin rises, at which point you can sell and profit.


The amount you decide to invest is up to you; you can choose to invest more than a thousand dollars as a start, but you must be patient and wait for the market to recover before you can see your profit; there is no point in rushing in your investment if there is trust.

Depends in what caught your interest, there are many things you can go for and here can give you some selections.

1.Trading
2.Holding
3.Investing on new start up crypto business
4. Or create your own business which useful to other crypto users.

Choose here and think about this but as always it all matters on your budget on which of this you can afford.

Dollar cost averaging, for sure — at least for 90%+ of people.

As for the amount, it's not up to us how much you're going to invest. Go invest with an amount that you're comfortable with.

Bitcoin is not a means to get rich overnight, you cannot profit that way from bitcoin. Only gambling can give you quick profits, and bitcoin is not gambling.



There are only 2 ways to profit from bitcoin: long-term holding and day trading. But day trading is very risky and requires a lot of knowledge to make a profit; as a newbie, I don't think you will make a profit but only a loss. For long-term holding, that means you need to hold for several years to see a significant return on bitcoin. But I see, what you need now is knowledge, not profit, because if you are lucky to have a profit without knowledge, you cannot keep it.

Bitcoin is now profitable if you buy and hold for a longer period of time, and the best way to invest is investing what you can afford to take your eye off for a long period of time, have a price target in mind and use a tracker like coinmarketcap app to set a price target reminder, the only mistake you can do is using money you will need in in a short period to invest in Bitcoin.

The investment is of two forms, there’s trading that serious needs lot of knowledge on Technical analysis, fundamental analysis and lots. Traders in crypto have the Ability to earn close to 10% profit weekly.
The easiest of them and most comfortable is the holding of bitcoin. It could be short time or long time. I prefer long time where you do DCA weekly or monthly. This requires patience and for that you need to invest an amount you can afford to lose. You can simply do invest 20% of your wages or salary.

You wont need to rush yourself with the bitcoin as long you can achieve to buy a satoshi and then make an earning with the bitcoin market price you are still in a good way many people keep chasing that before they make an investment with the bitcoin it must be a one bitcoin and not just a partial of it and also always make sure that you are ready with the possible loss not all the time the market is green like the last time we experience we are in the market volatility of too much dump and make a quick recover within the day.

what exactly are you planning to do with your bitcoins, do you intend to be a trader (daily or weekly) or just an investor (long-term holder) -- if you want to see your bitcoin amount grow then you have to trade (of course at your risk of loss also if you are not in a good position to sell or buy), but if you just want to see the value of your bitcoin against the dollar increase then you just need to hold it in the long term.

$ 100 is actually a relatively small nominal for investing in bitcoin and the profit you get will definitely be small (looking at the current bitcoin price) -- you can add more btc to your investment by doing the DCA trick every month (buy regularly).

There are not limit or minimum fund want to invest in Bitcoin but if you try investing trough exchange market they have several variation minimum values under$5 until $10. Seems worth if you try investing with $100 as beginner and first time is not bad, you can comparison one week or one month later with your 100$ investment fund in Bitcoin how much increasing up, will up and earn profit above $5 until $20 or potential back drop with your investment.

I don't recommended for altcoin but $100 more profitable when investing in altcoin have lower values and up above 5% until 20% you can earn more than 20$, difference with Bitcoin seems difficult can reach higher price more than 20% in short time.

100$ is enough to startup as a crypto investment but you have to choose right path of doing investment. You can go for future trading with lower leverage if you want to earn a good profit. But remember one thing it's also very risky and can be liquidated all your assets if you use high leverage. Better you can use 3× or 5× leveraged tokens as they are now in a very cheap rate and can give you good return. So it's all up to you. I just tried to share from my experience dude.

how do you plan your Bitcoin investment? what you see from Bitcoin trading is not that easy. those who trade have sufficient skill to make them profitable. and as a beginner to be honest crypto trading will be quite difficult, but not impossible to learn.
investment is not a big problem the money you put in. for a beginner, you have to start with small money. but for the assets you choose, of course, it affects. if you put your money in Bitcoin, the best plan for Bitcoin is a long term investment. and if you are just starting, you of course need more other knowledge that you have to get.

The best way to be involved in the Bitcoin network ultimately depends on the knowledge that you have about Bitcoin, from your OP you are a noob, so you might want to forget about trading for now, it is quite risky and it requires skill and knowledge that you do not have right now, i'm afraid if you trade as a newbie, you would not be able to make any ROI.

Having said that, generally a knowledge of what you are doing is very crucial, whether it is hodling or trading, though hodling might be less risky than trading because you basically have to just buy and wait, but with hodling you must learn how to hold coins only in a non custodial wallet, and also how not to expose the sensitive informations relating to your wallet.

It's pretty simple. Nowadays there are hundreds of methods available to get some Bitcoins. The most popular ones are Bitcoin exchanges or Bitcoin ATMs.

What I would do: Choose a decent exchange, you like. Deposit your $100 and buy some BTC. You don't need thousands of dollars to get started, as it's no problem to buy just a fraction of a Bitcoin.

If you want to keep your Bitcoin for a longer period of time, it makes sense not to leave them on the exchange, but to store them cold storage. For this purpose, you can use easy and cheap paper wallets or hardware wallets (for bigger amounts).

You need to select which type of investment you are going to use, Like is it short-term or long-term trading, day trading, etc. let me make a list for you easily.

• Spot Trading--> In this, you buy BTC at price "X" and sell at Price "Y"  with covering some profit and loss. If you are new and have a lesser amount even then I can say giving it a try is best because future trading and margin trading is the trickier I personally fall prey to these trading types, and lost money How? I was lacking Knowledge of Technical and General Analysis.
• Margin Trading: You borrow money from the exchange with average and at some liquidation price, if the token you had invested in goes below that point (in Long) then you will lose all of your money and vice versa. depending on your money this is the best option as with 100$ you can borrow 100 more and can earn more but that also doubled the risk of even losing your money too.

long term means holding for a few years maybe months, and short-term means holding for weeks to months. Like you invested your $100 in BTC and wait for a few weeks or months until you make a profit.

Once you knew which type of trading suits you best depending on your experience, You can start. And yes you can buy BTC for $100 all at once but i prefer you to do DCA (Dollar Cost Averaging) in which you put little segments of your investment capital whenever you got an entry point this will increase your profit ratio.

Yes, $100 is more than enough to start trading, let me tell you a short story of my friend's journey, He started from $7 in future trading and made $150 out of it but unfortunately, he lost $50 in liquidation. but he earned above $93. But a reminder he has a good experience as he lost too. when I see him I also start future trading and lost everything even my own. So I came back to Spot trading because in this if I buy btc it is my own it does not matter if the price goes up or goes down if I have 0.2 btc they will be 0.2 forever, But in future once the price crosses the liquidation price your money is gone.

-Buying a small portion of Bitcoin when you can afford it
-Day trading
-Bitcoin mining with ASIC miners
-P2P services
-Working a job online and getting paid in Bitcoin.

These are some cool ways anyone can use to invest in Bitcoin, the only 'don't' here is avoid using money you are not ready to keep aside for a long period of time, don't do this.

I remember there used to be websites that gives you 1-2 free satoshi. Is it still working? I know it's not investment though

You can start investing in crypto with small money because it depends on how much free money you can use. Investing $100 regularly is good for you because you can collect more bitcoins during the current recovery period.
But if not, using a small amount of money is enough.
If you want to try trading, you have to learn a lot before starting, including trying a demo account for practice so you can trade well.
Trading is not easy and you must have the ability to analyze the market, which is why many people are unable to become a trader.
But if you just want to invest, that's fine too because you don't need to analyze too deeply about market conditions and you just need to continue investing regularly until the time comes for you to sell those bitcoins.

Bitcoin is a digital currency that operates independently of a central bank. Its value is determined by the market, meaning that it can be subject to significant fluctuations in price. While Bitcoin has been profitable for some investors who have bought and held it for a longer period of time, it's important to remember that past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results.

Good, looks like you've quite understood it. Then what is a good step when you really want to invest at bitcoin? That seems to be what the OP was asking instead of the general understanding of bitcoin. Don't hesitate to read the content at main page.


You can invest any amount you want. As long as you have a budget and you know what the risks are, you can invest as much as you can afford to lose. This means if you have a $10k budget but you can only afford to lose $1k, then you should only invest $1k in bitcoin instead of putting all your budget in bitcoin. You may need to consider some strategies, and feel free to read this thread: Buy the DIP, and HODL!  (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5132720.0)

You can invest with $100. But definitely invest as much as you can and never invest under pressure. $100 is enough investment to start in the first place. But in Bitcoin market you can start your journey by investing as you wish. One thing always remember that Bitcoin investment is high risk. Your investment can be reduced at any time after investing. But you will never break there if you wait patiently you will surely get good results in investment.

Actually bitcoin is the first introduced crypto to newbies because this is what commonly used as payment processor by crypto platforms or any investment sites. But before trying to spend some hard earned cash with this we badly need to invest on ourselves to learn more important information about crypto. Since to many hypes on it which can influence us to think scams are legit and other good platforms are shady to us, so we need to know how to differentiate first which is good and not to decide well on our investments.

Don't invest your bitcoins anywhere, just buy bitcoin and keep buying is the best way to add value of your portfolio. Since we are talking about decentralized assets such as Bitcoin then it doesn't make sense to deposit the assets to a centralized platforms for staking, lending or any other scheme make you to lose the ownership.

For anyone who wants to start their cryptocurrency journey, start with less which depends on our financial status and over the time surely you will know the power of HODLing.

If you could observed, you will notice that it took Bitcoin good 13years to rise in value from $0 to $24,305, which is the current value of Bitcoin today, and on that note, you can't just invest $100 today and except to see $200 or $300 in a week or months time, because that how Ponzi schemes work, and Bitcoin is no Ponzi scheme, of which if you are looking for such magic, I'll suggest you go check altcoins.
However, one thing you need to understand is that Bitcoin can be invested bit-by-bit or traded to accumulate more depending on how skillful you are, and as a newbie, it's more advisable to buy bit by bit while hoping to keep it as a long term investment.


Any amount is okay for Bitcoin investment, because no amount is too big or small in as much as it's between the range of the exchange or wallet you wishes to buy coin with

Stay calm and don't panic, that's the key to successful Bitcoin investment. If you want to get big profits in the short term, then investing $ 100 for bitcoin will not make big profits, the investment formula basically lies in the amount of capital you have. If you buy bitcoins in large quantities, the profit you get will automatically be greater.

The issue of bullish or bearish market conditions is technical and how you take advantage of buying or selling bitcoins that you have, but for the short term the profits of investing in bitcoins will adjust to the capital you have.

As much as risk to reward ratio applies, you can only invest what you've got and it's still advisable that be what you can afford to loose but then, more funds really means more chnace at profit and that's better than less funds. You wouldn't expect to profit more with little funds over someone who have put a whole lot in the market. That is when it's got to do with hodling but, in trading, it really comes down to what you've put in and how much turn over in profits your trades could accord you and that means, your loses have to be reduced to a minimum. That apparently means, you take more risk than hodling.

If this is your first experience buying Bitcoin, I will suggest you buy it on the top trusted exchange. Like Binance, Kucoin, Coinbase, or a local exchange in your country that really has a high reputation. Bitcoin investment is very risky, you must be aware of and understand this risk. And you must be ready for the risks. But behind the risk, there are also some profits to be gained if you can manage the risk very well.

Some people may also do P2P transactions. But as a newbie, you must really understand where and to whom to do that transaction. It must be trusted P2P and this will be fast enough. But if you don't have the idea, better to use certain top reputable exchanges and then save your Bitcoin on your personal wallet, moreover hardware wallet for better safety.

Bitcoin investment varies and you will need to learn some things about the market so that you will have a broad clue about how the market moves. There are different ways to make money from the market either by investing and holding the coin or token for a long time to appreciate before selling it or you can chose to trade, staking, farm, do airdrop or bounty to earn from the market. There are different ways to earn from the market that is why we need to be have a broad knowledge about cryptocurrency so you can earn in a diverse ways.

Well, I would personally never recommend a newbie who is just starting his career with Bitcoin to invest more than $100 only to get more profit, I would even suggest they start lower than that. I know you are just trying to give him knowledge about it, and I know what you said is correct that the amount of profit depends on the size of the capital invested.

But, you should also tell him that what he has and is willing to start with is enough to learn the basics and to start their journey with Bitcoin or cryptocurrencies. They will eventually learn to earn more profits over time, but the main thing is to understand how everything works.

Just be patient it might take days,months or years before you see added value to the Bitcoin that you bought and assuming that you bought the day of your post, you should be seeing an added value to your portfolio because the Bitcoin price increased around 5.5%


You are free to invest how much money you wanted to but be informed that how huge your profit is dependent on how much you invest.  You can either invest in one go but many believe that if you are for a long-term investment, the best method of accumulating Bitcoin is by DCA.

Aside from money investment, you can also invest your time to learn about Bitcoin and the job path it offers.  You can find different job offers on this site[1] and see if you have the knowledge or interest to learn the skills needed to meet those job demands.

The way you invest on others can also be used to invest in bitcoin as well. There are two major which bitcoin can be invested. One, you can invest on bitcoin by trading. In the process of trading you can make profit in it then the second one is the traditional way of keeping it in you wallet. That is you buy it and store it in your wallet for months, years. Hodling is one of the best way to invest on bitcoin. I believe but not confirmed, these are the two main ways bitcoin can be invested.

But before you invest on bitcoin, make sure you understand the pros and cons (the risk) on it first before Investing in it so that you will not be like if I have known.

From the outside it looks really glamourous, but only when you begin do you realize that it is not as easy and straightforward as it looks from the outside.

You do not have to just buy once and then feel like it will be enough to yield good profit unless it is a really big amount. If investment in bitcoin is not a huge amount that with every market movement you make good profit or huge loss, you will need to keep increasing the amount of bitcoin you own by buying regularly as you can to increase your chances of a good market gain when the value of bitcoin rises.

This is enough to start with, but not enough to be okay about. Invest more if you can but not more than you afford to loose.

I don't really understand what you mean by you have tried investing and you don't see any added value in the coin you bought. When you invest in bitcoin, the amount of bitcoin you bought will not increase or reduce, don't think your bitcoin will be increasing because you invested in bitcoin, the only thing that will be increasing or reducing in price is the worth of the bitcoin, but the amount of bitcoin you are holding will remain the same.

To answer your question, it really depends on your strategy. Some people buy and hold onto their coins for the long term, hoping that the value will increase over time. Others prefer to trade actively, buying and selling coins as the market fluctuates in order to make a profit.

As for starting out with $100, it is definitely possible to invest in bitcoin with that amount. It is important to remember that crypto market can be a volatile and there is always the risk. It might be worth considering starting with a small amount and gradually increasing your investment as you get more comfortable with the market.



Yes, there are still websites that offer small amounts of free satoshis as a way to introduce people to Bitcoin and encourage them to use it. These sites typically offer very small amounts, often only a few satoshis at a time, and require users to complete simple tasks like solving captchas or clicking on ads in order to earn them. You can check out freebitco.in for example, but if I remember correctly there is a relatively high withdrawal threshold. There are other Bitcoin faucets out there, but you will have to do some research on your own to find them.

Do you mean that you have invested in another cryptocurrency and so far have not seen any change in its value rise in the market apart from the Bitcoin you want to buy? is that right?

      When it comes to investing, as long as what budget your pocket can afford, that's what you use. Do not invest against your will, even 20$ you can invest here. Now if it's 100$ there's no problem as long as that's your extra money.

You have done research on other investments and made good earnings from it. then this should be a problem when you try to invest in bitcoin. The risk maybe the same like stock but way more volatile on crypto.

and yes you can invest any amount or start from 100$ if you have a lot of money try 100$ first divide it into 4 or 5 and then start buying in on different time feel the volatility first and if you think is suitable for you, Go ahead top up a lot of money.

I'm not really sure when you brought your bitcoin or what price range you brought it that you saying that you don’t make profit. But as far as I'm aware, Bitcoin market price is not stable; its value fluctuates. Therefore, if you invested, say, $50, and the price of a Bitcoin rises to $21,000, you must make a profit, but I will say it will be a very small amount  which may not  be your expectation.
The idea of the more money you invest, the more money you will make is not a new logic. Therefore, if you invested a large sum of money in bitcoin, you will undoubtedly profit when things turn out well. But just be aware that investing in bitcoins won't make you rich overnight; in order to make a good return on investment, one must have patience.but know that don't invest what you can't afford to lose in crypto industry because of the risk it involves.

There's no amount very good to start up with bitcoin it all depends on what your pocket can let out, and make sure to put in money you're ready to easily let go cause it's all a volatile system and nothing is very sure about the price in the next moment.
You can either trade or invest (buy and hold for longer term) depending on which really suit your ability, that's if you're good in trading, having the experience needed to making profit then you can go into trading but if no, then I'll advise you buy and hold waiting for when a bear season will take place for you to take in profit.

Those are called faucets, and yes, there are still some faucets out there that you can use to collect a few satoshis every hour or so, but as you said, they are not investment options but they used to be a starting point for newbies in Bitcoin. When I first came to know about Bitcoin, I used to use faucets to claim free Bitcoins, and at that time, Bitcoin's value wasn't this high so faucets used to give away a lot of satoshis.

These days, you can hardly make $1 in several days using faucets because the reward rates have been reduced badly after the price of Bitcoin went too high, and people almost stopped using faucets so they don't really get enough ad revenue to give away a lot.

One important thing to remind them is, don't bet on investments they don't fully understand.
Bitcoin is still relatively new for most people because many of them know bitcoin since the price touched ATH. The information they receive about bitcoin and the possible return on investment may be true, but in reality it is not as simple as they think. You are right about the risks, and they should consider their investment budget wisely.

If you have done research on investments and previously also received profits, run your plan as you wish, patience needs to be prioritized when your plan don't work perfectly. Make your choice, if you want to invest short-term, release all assets when there is a return. If for the long term, buy, hold and forget. Choose a coin that has strong fundamentals, in this case Bitcoin has been tested and has less risk than other altcoins.

Point of correction mate.
Bitcoin is not a fiat, it is a cryptocurrency, and the first cryptocurrency to ever come into existence invented by an anonymous fellow named "Satoshi Nakamoto" in the year 2009. So there is a very big difference between fiat and Crypto (i.e general name for all coins), that is;

Fiat is the generally accepted legal tender of any nation or country used as a medium of exchange of goods and services e.g US dollar "$", British pounds "€", Euro "£", and Chinese yen "¥". These are all fiats.
While,
Crypto is a digital currency in which transactions are recorded and verified on a decentralized system using cryptography. And Bitcoin is the first decentralized digital currency. Take note @ Rockson1

One common truth is the that, the plan doesn't always work. That's to mean, one can never be that encompassing on all the possibilities that could thwart a plan and avert it. Its normal in investing too, be it long term or short term. Always have room for unforseen circumstances. It's the reason why investing in this new crypto innovative system is always advised to be done using spare cash. So in the event that, your plan doesn't work, in the event that the market turns the other way, you would always have some reason to be okay with the outcome.

Meanwhile, its more safe and agreeable towards bitcoin investment than, another coin out there and more safe to hold and hold on a long time base.

The both ways you've mentioned is very possible and could be actualized, but not by everyone....you seee, the first one you did - which is simply buying 'em coins, and storing them for sometime in your non-custodial wallet could be done by anyone since it doesn't need any additional skill,but the other one does -- I'm supposed you know the whole thing is like a market, where you could sell and either make profits or losses.
So I won't advise 'em rookies to go into the trading aspect, since they'll only end up losing all their cash Capital in a twinkle of an eye; the volatility rises too high atimes and keeps PROs on the run.

First, you can invest any amount of money, there is no fixed amount. But before investing you must have enough understanding about investment and then invest. If you want to make money by investing, you must be patient. With 100 dollars you are thinking of starting investment I think investing with 100 dollars in the first case is a good start. If you start investing with $100 you will gradually gain enough knowledge about investing and you can increase your investment amount if you want as you become experienced.  But remember one thing if you invest, you will not always get profit, if you invest many times, you may face loss, at that time you need to be very patient. If you can be patient at that time, then you will see success.

I agree. $100 is a good start. $1 daily in crypto investing does not make any sense due to the fees needed. OP can keep his $1 daily savings and invest it into bitcoin once it reaches $100. There is no need to hurry anyways because as a newbie, OP needs to learn and understand first the basics fundamentals of bitcoin. And who knows, from day-to-day learning, OP might get interested in studying technical analysis of bitcoin and starts trading because the market is expected into a major bull run sometime next year which is the year of bitcoin's halving.   

invest with funds that you can afford, don't force it if you don't have it.
but if you already have sizable funds you can start with bitcoin, because there is less risk than other cryptos, and of course it has to be in the long term.

You could start anytime you want, if you have 100$ money to invest then you could buy bitcoin and then you could buy again when you have another money to invest. You're gonna need an investment plan for how your going to handle your investment, some just buy bitcoin and put it in their wallet then wait years for long-term profit, But most people prefer to collect more bitcoin overtime buying a small amount every month or weekly then if there is an opportunity for profit you can sell it or wait until the bull run.

You can start investing in bitcoin with $100 if you're a beginner. Doing so will help you gain knowledge about your goals and the risks involved, as bitcoin has its own drawbacks when the market is down. Additionally, to profit from bitcoin, you must be able to hold onto your coin for an extended period of time. Therefore, I believe investing in a small sum of money as a beginner is not bad.

Definitely $100 will not be enough for you to get much benefit from such an investment. Try to make investing in bitcoin permanent, the main idea is not to buy $100 worth of bitcoin one day and wait for it to multiply significantly. The main thing is to make investing systematic, buy every week or every month for a certain amount.

Have you heard of the DCA strategy? If not, look here: https://corporatefinanceinstitute.com/resources/wealth-management/dollar-cost-averaging-dca/#:~:text=DCA%20is%20a%20strategy%20in,amount%20of%20capital %20is%20exhausted. I learned about it recently and I really like this strategy, I think that this is something that can significantly improve your results in investing in bitcoin.

We are in a bear market right now and to see results from our investments we need more patience to wait for the bull market to start. By then, your portfolio should be formed, because if you only have a few satoshis worth $100, then the profit will be small. If bitcoin rises to 100k, then your investment will turn into $400. This is a 4x increase, but as you can see, the amount will not be very impressive, so you need to strive to buy as much bitcoin as possible by then.

Try it, you will succeed!

Yes, you can invest $100 or even less. It is just about enough to start your crypto journey (http://cryptounity.org/news/cryptounity-the-one-that-guides-you/). Here are some thoughts in bullet points
- Invest it or whatever amount you have, which you know you can afford to lose.
- Treat centralized exchanges very carefully. Once you purchase your first bitcoin, your next best step is to move it to a cold storage. Search the forum for more details on this.
- Unless you plan on being a trader, hold most of your coin for long term to truly enjoy its benefits.

Ti invest in Bitcoin, it is crucial to understand how it works, its history, and the potential risks and rewards. There are plenty of resources available online, such as articles, videos, and podcasts, that can help you learn about Bitcoin.

Choose a reputable exchange: There are numerous Bitcoin exchanges where you can buy, sell, and trade Bitcoin. Choose an exchange that is reputable, secure, and has low fees.

Consider dollar-cost averaging: Rather than investing a lump sum of money all at once, consider spreading your investment over time through dollar-cost averaging. This means investing a fixed amount of money at regular intervals, such as weekly or monthly.

Secure your investment: Bitcoin is a digital asset, so it is crucial to protect your investment from theft or hacking. Consider using a hardware wallet to store your Bitcoin offline.

Don't invest more than you can afford to lose: Bitcoin is a highly volatile asset, and its price can fluctuate rapidly. Therefore, it is crucial to invest only what you can afford to lose, and not to invest your life savings or take out loans to invest in Bitcoin.

Yes, you can use $100 to start BTC investment but ensure the price decrease to a level you can use that amount to buy huge amount of BTC and hold for long term, so that you will be able to earn well in future. You don't need to have plenty money before you can invest in BTC because, BTC is different from other fiat investment that someone will collect a big loan or have a big money before he or she can invest to earn well from the investment. I will advise you not to show anybody your personal details concerning your wallet when you purchase some coins because, without you giving out your wallet details nobody can have access to your money and your money is more secure than bank.

If you can get involve in long term investments, I guess it will add more value to your income than short term investments because the years the coins will spend in your wallet will determine the profit you are going to make when the price increase higher.

Bitcoin is a good ground for you to invest, buying bitcoin and keep it will go along way because of it potential it has to the people, for this period bitcoin is good to buy now because I believe you will never regret buy it. Forget about trading I will suggest you should buy and hold don't stress yourself, just invest in Bitcoin.

When you talk about investment it doesn't matter the specific amount to invest, this only depends on the investors on is capacity of what is account is reading at the moment, and also Depends of what he or she thinks he can afford to lose in the amount. For you as a beginner $100 is OK for you. Do it gradually is better than lossing all your money.

There is no set rule regarding how much money to buy Bitcoin for each individual. It depends on the individual. But $100 is more than enough to buy Bitcoin for the first time. If you are still a beginner in Bitcoin investment, you are better to use small money. Although Bitcoin is quite safe to invest, you must know well crypto market and the pump-dump in Bitcoin price. Bitcoin doesn't always increase the price at every time. It can rise high and drop severely suddenly. Make sure you know well Bitcoin investment before you spend bigger money.

There's no specific amount laid down as a conventionally accepted figure needed to run a good bitcoin investment, all that's needed importantly is your knowledge and experience to use in running whatever amount you can afford to start with.

Like I had always advocated, trading isn't meant for everyone, so therefore, if on the account of countless trials resulting to more losses, your alternative should be to buy and patiently hold for as long as possible. In other words, key into king term hold as it's guaranteed that bitcoin will always rise giving to profits for those that patiently hold.

Staregi Sell or Buy is one that people often use, you can decide to buy at a lower price and you can also take the opportunity to sell when the price is higher, it is more to the short term for investment strategies like this.

But if you have more capabilities in investment, long -term is a very promising alternative and you can also combine DCA patterns to make purchases, if you use long -term patterns then it is more suitable for you to store bitcoin in a safe wallet. But if you understand the short term, then there are some exchanges that you can choose to make transactions.

Anyone is free to invest in any amount, but must be adjusted to their abilities. The DCA pattern is a good strategy to apply, if you don't have additional capital to be purchased in large quantities. Many people already know, that Bitcoin is much better than other crypto, so it's natural if you choose Bitcoin for the investment that is run.

Investing in bitcoin has no compulsory amount to invest, the thing is understanding, acknowledgeable, and patience, when you have  the understanding to invest, you receive a huge profit. And the best time of buying bitcoin is the time when the bear is still down so that when the price rises up to your satisfaction then you market it out and make your profit from it. That is why it is called investment. In the bitcoin holding world patient is the answer. You can buy and hold, buy in lesser and hold it for long-term, or wait for BTC to achieve its ATH again? That is the best time to sell it. the DCA pattern is one of the strategies that people can apply, this is directly related to some people who don't have big capital to buy.

The value of the coin will not increase. You have to face these complications in starting trading, and for this you need to gain more knowledge about trading. Beginner you can start short term trading in spot trading, in this case, you need to continuously know the updates about crypto world news. I will tell you to try to learn more about chart analysis now if you want to start trading. And as a beginner, it is wiser to choose bitcoin than to go to altcoin investment, at least here you don't have to stress about the security of your fund, and its market is also volatile it must be remembered, but the rate of rise and fall is relatively low compared to other coins.
And I think 100 dollars is enough to make an investment, but remember one more thing that investment should be that much as much as you can afford to lose. If you want, you can trade using stop limit option in spot trading of binance. And if you want to make long term investment then adopt dca strategy and stick from now until the halving of the next bull-run.
I don't totally disagree with you but since he(op) is new I think it would be better to pick Bitcoin. For this alt-coin investment, I think he has to take a lot more risk, in that case Bitcoin will give him a safe investment.

It doesn't matter if the OP is new or old but investing in altcoins should never be mentioned or recommended to him. Altcoins shouldn't be the way anybody starts his journey in the market or that individual will be lost forever because at first he might be lucky with his picks but as time goes on and he begins to become full of himself then the wrong picks starts coming in and if he isn't careful, he might lose everything he has gained including his invested capital.

That's how deadly the altcoins market are and shoudn't be given much attention when it comes to investing.Investment in Bitcoin should be the only encouraging idea as you save yourself a lot of lost by so doing. Bitcoin will always be profitable in every bull run but the same can't be said about a particular altcoins or them all in general. Therefore if you want to get the best out of Bitcoin then investing when the market is down is the best step to follow.

I partially agreed on your opinion, but the investment amount should be above 50$ to see least change on the investment.  But there is no limit or barrier  on investment in bitcoin.

Also, it is risky to invest on altcoins no matter newbie or you have enough knowledge in cryptocurrency.

You can choose both by trading or holding for the long term because that way we can grow the portfolio value if we do it the right way, but for beginners my advice would be better if you choose to choose holding as a portfolio value growth option because by holding the risk is lower than the risk when trading, especially with trading, we are required to always make technical analysis and some basic strategies so that it will be very risky for beginners who are not experienced in market movements if they want to trade.

One thing you should note is that Bitcoin is not a get rich quick business that you will start seeing profit immediately after your investment, so it's a long term investment stuff if you want to start seeing some profits.
Secondly the amount of your investment determines what your profits would be in the future. Then lastly don't trade Bitcoin buy and hold for at least a period of 2-3 years from now for a better profit results. Use good dollar cost averaging, basically dividing your capitals into portion and buy at every given pull back you will be getting in the market henceforth.

Solid advice you dished out. At an initial stage people thought trading was the best way to get rich from any Bitcoin investment until those who neither had the patience to sit and monitor Bitcoin trends in order to trade or those who had no option other than to just keep their coins forgotten in a wallet, discovered the beauty of actually leaving the coins ones it yielded profit at the time it was gotten back to.
While a strategy may be to just forget the coins until sometime later, the yield may not be anything big compared to having topped up the forgotten coins over the time without withdrawing any of it.

Investing in bitcoin has no limit of amount to invest, the thing is understanding, acknowledgeable, and patience, when you have  the understanding to invest, you receive a huge profit. And the best time of buying bitcoin is the time when the bear is still down so that when the price rises up to your satisfaction then you market it out and make your profit from it. That is why it is called investment. In the bitcoin holding world patient is the answer. You can buy and hold, buy in lesser and hold it for long-term, or wait for BTC to achieve its ATH again? That is the best time to sell it.

Bitcoin is a coin that we are highly sure of it success. No matter how it dumped it goes, it is certainly sure that it will still move up during bullrun. No one knows it's bottom so one can buy continuously using DCA.

The best way to invest in Bitcoin is to research and understand the market, choose a reputable cryptocurrency exchange, create a secure wallet, and consider a long-term investment strategy.

The best way to invest in Bitcoin is to understand the market movements, and place a pending order price when Bitcoin is dipped it automatically executed as a spot trader and sell when when return back to original stage make a little profits and it can as well by holding as investment for a period of time holding. The major things that matter in Bitcoin investment is your entry point and capital used to buy, that determine you're profits return investment.

Since you brought this topic back to life, I can add my 5 cents...

Well, from personal experience, best way to invest is the legal way you have in your country through the exchange you have. So, OTC or any shady (if that's the question) is bad, you definitely need to make KYC and must buy through legal way for later eventual tax payment.

When is the best timing it's something else (if that's the topic). Usually, best time to invest in bitcoin is when everyone and everywhere are bearish - meaning, they are not optimistic, they are negative, there is a lot of negative news etc. There is also fear & greed index (google it), when it drops below 20, usually is the best time to buy.

So, yeah, if we keep it simple - buy when others are in fear and think everything will drop to zero.
But also before buying you need to set your goals straight, otherwise you will lose it eventually.

I believe that mentality is always from those who actually introduced them to the environment, forgetting about the Bitcoin process and mentioning that in any form of business, generally, it takes time before you start seeing profits from what is invested. Because of this, I continue to wonder why people also view Bitcoin as a get-rich-quick scheme while ignoring the entire process. This is why I said that I blamed those who introduced them, as some people don't actually properly introduce Bitcoin, they only say the nicest things leaving out the risk behind investing.

The amount is also to be considered so you have to increase the number of bitcoins you have and the higher the quantity the higher the profit, I feel some people eventually sell their bitcoins due to financial issues and that is why it is always advised to always use funds you won't be needing for a very long time, holding is easy to say but in reality not easy, but holding for a long time is most beneficial.

The right choice for beginners who are new to crypto is of course investing in Bitcoin compared to altcoins. because bitcoin is definitely the best because the risk is also smaller as long as you store bitcoin in the right wallet. What you need to keep in mind is that investing in bitcoin is not a way to get rich quickly, bitcoin takes time to make a profit if you keep holding it. In conclusion, no matter how much money you want to invest, the important thing is that you are prepared to face losses.

For a beginner, starting an investment with $100 is very good, because of course as a beginner your knowledge is still very limited and you are not very skilled at conducting research, so investing a small amount is highly recommended. Except later after you master the market you can buy bitcoins again using the DCA method, because this method is very safe for beginners.

Your explanation made everything about bitcoin investment so easy. As a newbie trying to invest in bitcoin, your comment might be kind of misleading. If you are planning to explain something to a newbie, then try to elaborate on it more. Bitcoin investment is the easiest, but you can also lose your money or bitcoin if the right thing is not done.
 
When investing in bitcoin, there are some things we should understand, make sure your bitcoin is not stored on exchange, make sure you choose a reputable exchange to buy your bitcoin from, but immediately you  buy it from exchange, make sure it’s sent to a non custodial wallet and make sure you properly secure your wallet private key. If you can lose your wallet private key then you are losing your bitcoin that’s why it should be properly secure. Make sure your private key is completely stored offline where their is no internet connection so that where you store it won’t be hacked, anyone that have your private key already have access to your bitcoin that’s why it should be protected, to safely secure your private key, it can be carved on a iron steel, so that it won’t be destroyed by either fire or water. A private key written on paper can easily be destroyed by either water or fire, that’s why I do recommended iron steel.

There are people that love jumping on trend and this can lead us to a bad decision investing in a project when it's too late. People might have taken there profits and dump the market before we realized that investing in such a project is at wrong timing. Timing is one of the important factor we need to  understand as a cryptocurrency investor.

 If we can invest in a project at the right time, we are not going to lose money and by the time people are already dumping the project, we would have taken our profits by then. Once we understand the effect of wrong timing in crypto investment, we are going to be making profits in projects we put our money except it end in rug pull.

There are so many ways for newcomers to invest into bitcoin these days. for example i live in Canada, and here there are so many investment apps popping that support bitcoin as a recurring way of investing (like wealthsimple). Although you don't specifically own your keys with this approach, its still a valid way for newcomers to get into investing in bitcoin.

Ultimately, majority of the people in this forum will recommend you to own your keys and would ask you to create a cold wallet using one of the many mobile apps to keep control of your keys, then you can buy bitcoin from exchanges and transfer it to your wallet.

First of all, your choice of choosing bitcoin assets among other cryptocurrencies is the right thing. Because if you don't know, bitcoin is the best and safest cryptocurrency because bitcoin is decentralized. So your decision to invest in bitcoin is very correct.

Yes, this is true, because as I said above, bitcoin is indeed the best crypto asset. So in terms of quality, security and profits, Bitcoin is indeed the most superior.

But my advice is, even though Bitcoin is very high quality in all aspects, don't just look at the results/profits. Because behind these profits there is a process that must be passed.
Not that easy and short. Because right now, I haven't sold the bitcoin assets that I have, because I'm investing in bitcoin, that's for the long term. So if you are still a beginner and haven't made a profit, in my opinion it is still considered normal. Because I, too, who was earlier than you, have not taken advantage of bitcoin. Even though in terms of market value, I have already made a profit, I will remain consistent in selling it when the bull market runs later (2024-2025).
In bitcoin, if you invest with capital that is not too large. Indeed, the profits will not be too big, considering that the price of bitcoin is very expensive. But investing in bitcoin with a capital of $ 100, in my opinion, is not too bad. Because to start investing in bitcoin, it's better to start with a small capital first, the most important thing is that the money is cold money.

But if you really want the money you invest in Bitcoin to grow more quickly. You can trade daily, weekly or monthly. So basically you have to be able to maximize the slightest market movement.

But to buy an altcoin with a capital of $ 100, in my opinion, it might feel quite big for an altcoin that has a very cheap price, but for an altcoin that has a high price like ethereum, if you want to make a profit, it will definitely be a little difficult too.

So in essence, if you invest in crypto, especially bitcoin, the name of capital, skill and knowledge will be very influential. And for less capital like you, I advise you to trade bitcoins in the short or medium term.
